Ten school students were injured after the wall of a building under construction adjacent to a private school suddenly collapsed on the school’s roof. The collapse of the wall caused the school’s roof to collapse, trapping the students under the debris.

The school staff immediately started rescue and relief operations. The children were rescued after the debris was removed but four of them were seriously injured, while six others also sustained injuries.

All the injured students were taken to BK Hospital for treatment. Upon receiving information about the accident, their families rushed to scene. Police arrived to inspect the scene as well.

Meanwhile, the school was immediately evacuated after the accident.

Police also inspected the adjacent building. It is being investigated whether it was being constructed in accordance with the rules.

THE TRIBUNE, India’s oldest, daily English-language newspaper, was first published on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), and save for 40 days in the immediate aftermath of Partition, has come out every day over the last 145 years. THE TRIBUNE was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist of the time. The newspaper is run by a five-member Trust, which is chaired by Shri N N Vohra, former Governor of J&K State (2008-2018); as well as Justice S S Sodhi, former Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court; Shri Gurbachan Jagat, former Governor of Manipur; Lt Gen. Shamsher Singh Mehta, former Western Army Commander; Shri Paramjit Singh Patwalia, Senior Advocate in the Supreme Court.

THE TRIBUNE is free, objective, and independent. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language, are the hallmarks of the paper.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
